  • "New" 1904 Studebaker buggy (big pics)

    As I mentioned in the other thread about the 4 door Avanti, I stopped on my way home and took a number of pictures of my buggy in an old upscale Richmond neighborhood. Here are several of them.






    Here is a link to the other pictures:

      We do a lot of work in Windsor Farms and I met a guy who lives there who collects buggies and wagons. Occasionally he has on in front of his house on Exeter Rd.

        Nice photos, Gary. Horse-drawn vehicles do look more complete when photographed with shafts, don't they? 'Hadn't thought of that! [:0] BP
        We've got to quit saying, "How stupid can you be?" Too many people are taking it as a challenge.

            I agree. Without the shafts, they appear too much like what is referred to as horseless carriages (gasolene or electric power).

              They look even better when complete with the horse power.



              No, that's not a Studebaker my wife is driving, however the one below is:



              'Course, that's not the avarage type of vehicle... Certainly a lot more trouble than Guido's Piano-box or my Klieber Doctor's Buggy.

                  Nicely composed photographs. The lighting and backgrounds are terrific. Good work.
                  The wagon is pretty nice too.

                    If I had to opt for a 1904 Studebaker, I'd take the horseless model that feeds on octane rather than oats!![:0]

                      Lenny,

                      I will at least bring this one and perhaps the yellow one too as well as my Studebaker built Onan generator. I am undecided on what vehicle to bring, possibly my '62 GT, maybe my '61 E-28 or the '46 fire truck. I still have 10 months to figure it out.

                        Rog,

                        This was a spur of the moment type thing. I really wanted to find a spot with a nice white 3 board fence with a pictorial scene behind it, but my time was limited as I put the buggy in winter storage yesterday.


                        On my way back from the meet Saturday I decided to stop by Windsor Farms. My first choice was the entrance road to the neighborhood that has a nice treed median with a brick guardhouse, but there was no where to park and there were cars on the street. I went further in and found this location at the Women's Club that had a nice parking lot in front.

                        The pictures with the brick columns were taken there, the Tudor style building is right next door. I just rolled it down the brick sidewalk and shot the pictures. The one with the open spaces was taken across the road. Several people that were walking their dogs stopped and spoke with me, but no one seemed concerned that I was there. One even asked if there was a wedding (there is a church adjoining the open field you see in the one picture). I am hopeful that Art will be able to use one of them.

                          My sister and future brother-in-law gave me these vintage Studebaker Electric 1904 glass beads or buttons. Does anyone know the original purpose of these buttons? I can only think that they were for promotional use and originally set in (crimped into) button frames.

                            Richard Quinn (Studebaker Wheel) can probably tell you what they are for.

                              That wagon is beautiful. If it were up to my wife Cindi that's how she would travel.
